Looking For A Language Partner
-

The first thing you need to do when learning a foreign language is to find a language partner. It helps you to correct your pronunciation and other mistakes. Let’s find a language partner to practice with.
Most teachers recommend that you start learning Russian with the alphabet. Most students stop learning Russian not because of the alphabet, but because of loss of motivation. I recommend that you start learning Russian not with the alphabet, but with friends, music, and movies.
Learning a foreign language can be difficult, especially if you have no experience in it. It’s possible to learn any language without reading a single book, but impossible without interacting with native speakers. If you want it, you can always ask your language partner to help you with the alphabet or read a book together.
There is a language exchange channel on The Russian Language Discord server. On the channel, you can introduce yourself and message any member you want to study with. I recommend you to use the following template:
Hello! I’m a native Russian speaker from 🇺🇦. I’m learning English and looking for an 🇺🇲/🇨🇦 language partner for long and productive language exchange sessions. My hobbies are music, history, programming, chess, teaching, and learning languages. Anytime is convenient for me. Feel free to contact me!
Most of the server members are students. If you are a native English speaker, find an English learning community. You will easily find a language partner there. If you are a native Chinese speaker, don’t use Tencent services. Set up a VPN connection, and look for a language partner somewhere else.
